Do you have 2-4 years of public accounting experience and are starting to feel like this may have been your last busy season?

We’re partnering with a multi-billion-dollar, publicly traded organization to identify a Senior Accountant to join their Minneapolis-based team.

This role sits within a highly visible group responsible for external and regulatory reporting, including SEC filings, financial statement preparation, technical accounting research, and partnering with both internal stakeholders and external auditors. It’s a great opportunity to gain exposure to complex accounting matters while building a strong foundation in public company reporting.

What really stands out is the long-term growth potential. This team has a strong track record of developing talent and serving as a stepping stone into broader accounting, finance, and leadership roles throughout the organization.

If you’re looking for your first move out of public accounting and want to join a company where people build long-term careers, this could be a really strong next step.

Responsibilities

  • Partner with teams across the organization to analyze financial results, investigate trends, and help ensure accurate and timely financial reporting.
  • Work closely with internal stakeholders and external auditors on a variety of accounting and reporting matters.
  • Support complex accounting analyses, research technical accounting issues, and help translate findings into meaningful business insights.
  • Participate in special projects focused on process improvements, system enhancements, financial analysis, and operational initiatives.
  • Prepare and present financial information to leadership while serving as a trusted resource on accounting and reporting-related questions.
  • Stay current on evolving accounting guidance and reporting requirements while helping the team navigate new and complex accounting matters.
  • Mentor and support less experienced team members as opportunities arise.

Desired Skills And Experience

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
  • 2-4 years of experience in public accounting, financial reporting, or corporate accounting.
  • Strong understanding of accounting principles and financial reporting concepts.
  • Experience analyzing financial information and working through complex accounting issues.
  • Comfortable working with large amounts of data and utilizing Excel to support analysis and reporting.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to collaborate across teams and explain financial information to both accounting and non-accounting stakeholders.
  • CPA, CPA-track, or other professional certifications are welcomed but not required.
  • Experience with SAP or other large ERP systems is a plus.
